Eric was the founding CEO of TearLab Corporation, a publicly traded, in-vitro diagnostics company (NASDAQ:TEAR) that has successfully commercialized one of the world’s first point-of-care, nanofluidic lab-on-a-chip platforms. The Company’s patented TearLab™ system is capable of measuring disease markers in tears for the rapid diagnosis of eye diseases. The TearLab™ has obtained FDA approval, CLIA Waiver, CE Mark, broad reimbursement in the United States, and is marketed in over 25 countries worldwide. Shortly after Eric’s departure, Tearlab’s market capitalization reached $500M. Eric was also the founding Chairman of Singularis, a biotechnology company commercializing a highly lubricating, recombinant protein for a number of therapeutic indications, including Dry Eye Disease, vaginal atrophy, knee osteoarthritis and interstitial cystitis. The Company has completed several strategic alliances and has its first product in clinical trials. The Company recently completed a licensing transaction with Novartis that includes $500M in payments plus royalties on sales. Eric was the founding CEO of Applied CarboChemicals, Inc. (“ACC”), one of the first synthetic biology companies developing processes capable of manufacturing chemicals and plastics from renewable carbon. ACC, renamed Bioamber (NYSE:BIOA), has developed a proprietary process capable of economically manufacturing succinic acid through fermentation at large scale using a genetically-engineered yeast strain. Succinic acid serves as a chemical intermediate for the synthesis of a vast range of derivative chemistries that function as detergent additives, monomers, polymers, coatings, solvents, among many other applications. BioAmber has built a $141M manufacturing facility in Sarnia, Canada and has formed strategic partnerships with DuPont, Cargill, Lanxess, Mitsubishi and Mitsui.
